MacTorrent - a BitTorrent client for Mac OS 8 and later
Posted by: Knez on 2017-08-05 00:16:32
Just wanted to share my BitTorrent client with you guys. It's based on a client called Torrantula by Ben Gotow and is written with REALbasic 2006R3 (the last version of REALbasic able to create PEF, or if you will non-carbon "Classic" binaries).

It in it's early stages, but it works with .torrent files. No DHT or magnet link support right now, but it's being worked on.

Works just fine on my G3 Kanga, which is my main test rig for MacTorrent.

Try it out and tell me what you think. Any help and ideas are more than welcome.

You can find it here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mactorrent/
